I don’t know what’s wrong. My 4 month old is so kvetchy all day. Her naps have become 20 minutes long and she will not fall back asleep. When she’s awake she used to lay on her mat and play happily. Now she just yells and complains the whole time. She’s gotten fussy with nursing as well. She’ll get distracted or she’ll just be kvetching while she’s nursing. I don’t know what is wrong. But what happened to my happy baby?
It’s like she is so tired but refuses to sleep for long.
At least nights are somewhat good. She wakes up to nurse and goes right back to sleep

Could also be teething.
Do you have a baby carrier? That saved me when my baby was going through this stage

How long has this been going on? Did you get her checked out?

It just started a few days ago.

Usually rock her in my arms or put her in the stroller. She used to fall asleep pretty fast. Then I’d transfer her to stroller or bassinet and she’d sleep for at least an hr.
